edge racing converter
just sent an email to edge racing to get a qoute on a 3000 stall and to find out what they think i should go with..... i have a question for u guys though.... can i install this myself? im told by the local tranny shop that i can.... and what is the difference between a lock-up converter and a non lock-up converter and what is better for a daily driver???

RE: edge racing converter
Ok they are easy to install yourself, if you can take the old one off you can put that one back on............You have to drop the tranny though. As for lock up its the final gear in your AOD it makes the tranny run 1:1 with the engine for better economy on the highway, if you drive this car lots its recomended to get a lock Up converter........if its a track car go with the non locking. PS your stock tranny is a lock up

They're going to quote you the same price that they would quote me $495.00. That is, if you are going to get the street edge. That's the one that they are probably going to reccomend. I'm ordering mine next week!!!! I can't wait.

RE: edge racing converter
Why wont alot of aftermarket trannies work with lockup converters? For Ex: I was looking at the Lentech Street Bruiser AOD and Lentech said it wouldnt work with a lockup..... when you say a lockup is more beneficial on the street (gas wise). Are we talking like loosing 1mpg if you go with a non lockup or are we talking lossing 5mpg, etc.?
